kvm: add capability for halt polling

Browse Source 
KVM_CAP_HALT_POLL is a per-VM capability that lets userspace
control the halt-polling time, allowing halt-polling to be tuned or
disabled on particular VMs.

With dynamic halt-polling, a VM's VCPUs can poll from anywhere from
[0, halt_poll_ns] on each halt. KVM_CAP_HALT_POLL sets the
upper limit on the poll time.

will allow the transition to secure guest mode. Otherwise KVM will
veto the transition.
7.20 KVM_CAP_HALT_POLL
----------------------
:Architectures: all
:Target: VM
:Parameters: args[0] is the maximum poll time in nanoseconds
:Returns: 0 on success; -1 on error
This capability overrides the kvm module parameter halt_poll_ns for the
target VM.
VCPU polling allows a VCPU to poll for wakeup events instead of immediately
scheduling during guest halts. The maximum time a VCPU can spend polling is
controlled by the kvm module parameter halt_poll_ns. This capability allows
the maximum halt time to specified on a per-VM basis, effectively overriding
the module parameter for the target VM.
